The line comes from Star Fox 64, Nintendo's 1997 rail shooter for the Nintendo 64, a game built around short radio-style voice orders between the Star Fox team during missions. Its fully voiced callouts became some of the most quoted gaming lines of that era and were later reused in remakes, memes and soundboards. This particular command survived because it is universally clear out of context, working for cars, spaceships and any rushed start, long after players have forgotten the specific mission it accompanied.
